Magic or Science?

 This week, we started exploring light and its properties. The Grade 1s did an experiment on light. They were amazed to see the 'magic' happened in front of their eyes.

After the experiments, we did a short reflection. When asked about the reason behind the results of the experiments, nobody said anything. So to ignite discussion, a statement was repeatedly uttered after every title of the experiment... 'It's MAGIC!'

A big 'NO' from the students followed. What really is the reason behind every result of the experiment? Let's see if they will remember and share with their parents and siblings at home.
